After appearing in games at extended spring training for the past week, the backstop has been cleared to embark on a rehab stint, marking the last step in his recovery before he rejoins the Padres. It's unclear how many minor-league games Hedges will need to appear in before his activation. Raffy Lopez and A.J. Ellis will continue to share catching duties until Hedges is healthy.","date":"Mon May 21"},"fullName":"Austin Hedges","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Known for his stronger reputation with the glove than the bat, Hedges' found his offense in 2016 with Triple-A El Paso. He continued to display power last season with the Padres, though his spotty contact rate nosedived even further. Hedges said he spent the offseason improving upon his bat-to-ball skills, but hopefully any gains in that area come without sacrificing power. Hedges can run a little for a catcher, stealing four bags in five tries, but more importantly, he may be able to take advantage of putting the ball in play more often with a few infield hits. Hedges' glove will keep him in the lineup nearly every day, and with a draftable power floor, Hedges has a chance to be a top-15 option at the position, if he can reduce punchouts and hover near a .250 average. Still just 25 years old, Hedges wouldn't be the first defensive whiz to parlay excellent hand-eye coordination into a better hit tool.","seasonId":2018,"date":"Fri Mar 9"},"playerRater30DAY":-2.8,"positionRank":43}

Rougned Odor might not be an awful baseball player, but he has been historically awful this year. The thing is, he's most definitely not alone. More sluggers than ever before are hitting home runs -- and doing almost nothing else.

Anthony Rizzo said he spoke with Joe Torre, MLB's chief baseball officer, who told him he would not be disciplined despite being in violation of Rule 7.13, which the sport introduced in 2014 to protect catchers from such collisions.

Walls game-winner forces Game SevenJohn Wall, who made only one of nine first-half field-goal attempts, hit a three-point field goal with less than four seconds remaining in the fourth quarter to lift the Wizards to a 92-91 win over the Celtics and force a winner-take-all game on Monday night.
